These days a truck is the center of attraction on the roads of Kaithal district of Haryana. People are calling this truck Baahubali. Although the name of this truck is Bahubali, but the speed is like that of a tortoise. This truck has 400 tyres. This truck had left from Gujarat for Panipat in Haryana a year ago, and has now reached there.
The truck left Kandla port almost a year ago in October 2023 with part of the boiler from Gujarat, which has now reached Kaithal district of Haryana. It has to reach Panipat Refinery. As soon as it reached Delhi-Patiala National Highway, there was a jam of about 1 kilometer long. To remove the truck, the Electricity Corporation disrupted electricity in the entire city for about 7 hours. Power lines were adjusted.
800 ton weight
During this time, roadways buses also remained stuck, due to which the passengers had to walk for one kilometer to reach the bus stand. Drivers told that a separate route has to be made to take out the truck. In such a situation, the truck is likely to take about 5 more months to reach Panipat Refinery from Narwana. Equipment for Panipat Refinery has been kept in this truck of Prism Company. Its weight including the boiler loaded in the truck is 800 tonnes.
A team of 100-200 people works
A team of 100-200 people works with this Bahubali truck. According to the information, the road where these trucks have to reach is cleared up to a distance of 15-20 kilometers in advance. For this, a special team works after taking permission from the departments of electricity, irrigation and railways etc., which corrects many problems including electrical wires on the way. Overall permission from the start of the truck till its arrival is taken from the Central Government.
